Ring Features Changing

If you have a Ring device you should be aware that things are changing for current users. Most of the features on its devices will only be available for subscribers with Home and Away modes. 

So long story short you now have to pay for premium services that were already available when you purchase the product.

Computer Networks

Confused are the different types of computer networks. Here is a good site to get an understanding of the different networks that computers offer. Hopefully, now you will be able to tell the difference the next time you connect.

Daylight Savings Time Update

I clearly understand why they enacted it during times of concern but it's beyond me why it has lasted so long and they just do not abolish the time change moving forward. 

Times have changed and so have people and technology. What was good years ago may not necessary be good today. 

In my opinion I see this time changing pointless, year after year everyone changes their time and everyone thinks that they are saving energy, but where the proof. Where is the data supporting that this is saving us energy. I want to know on how much power changing my clock to one hour back and forward has made us saved. Let us see that information and let that information be easily available to everyone so that we can end this debate.

PimEyes Search

Want to keep track of every website that has a picture of you. This site not only keeps you informed but keeps your identity secured so thieves do not try to impersinate you or get a hold of your identity.

It's an interesting AI sight that searches the internet to find any of your pictures online.

It's definitely out of this world.

Dish systems

It's pretty sad to hear Dish system outages but it's not surprising. Maybe now they will take priority in securing their networks. 

In the long run it's going to be situations like this that is going to have companies learn from their mistakes.

Teams Upgrade

Microsoft is upgrading Teams with higher performance and less resources. Let's just say it's going to be a game changer and I cannot wait to see how it performs in the long run.

Teams is the future and as time goes on, it's going to be hard not to want to use the program.

Netflix Slash Prices

It looks like Netflix is trying to negotiate with it's customers so that they can keep on using it's platform. Now it's going to slash costs over three dozen countries worldwide.

We hope that they will eventually gain grown once users understand that it's still a great platform when compared to others. 

Let's see what going to happen next.

Starlink New Price Plan

Just when you were getting comfortable with Starlink a price increases pop up out of no where. Yes, it's going up and it's basically only for limited capacity areas. 

So I am almost certain many customers did not see that coming so quickly.

Tesla Recall Problem

The recent Tesla Full Driving software feautre has a fix that requires an over the air software update but it explaining this to owners and others gets very interesting as per the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. 

Let's just say this does leave the door open for a classic class action suit on the company that they have a feature called Full Self-Driving. You decide.

Transfer WiFi Passwords

Transfererring to a new computer is never simple and easy to do, especially if you have many passwords. If that is the case then you can simply use Powershell for this.

Lexmark Bug

It looks like Lexmark has a security bug that exploits the printer to attack, I recommend users update their software as soon as possible. There is no telling what can continue to occur if this patch is not updated soon.

Yammer Gone

Microsoft recently killed Yammer and now decided to focus on Viva Engage. And let's just say Viva will inherit and adapt to the new user experiences.

It's a long-awaited change and hopefully, it will no longer confuse users.

Snow Cover

It looks like our world is changing quickly, not only are getting drastic weather changes but our environment is quickly shifting. It's still unknown if history is repeating itself or if this is just natural event. But you should be you just be aware of what's going on globally.

Bing AI

It looks like Microsoft Bing AI is moving in a world of it's own. As users continue to test the bot testers are noticing that it's definitely moving into another direction and it make you wonder if this is going in the same direction as in movie the Terminator

Oddly, in the movie Genisys was trying to take control of the world once it went online. This might be a coincidence or just my imagination. You decide.

Netflix Plans

Since Netflix plan changes are taking effect this is what users can expect when upgrading their plan. So this is what you can expect to pay if you still plan on sharing your account with others.

Home Depot Dating App

It's bizarre to me why this site is the best place to go to for dating. And it keeps on trending so I am convinced that the recent covid lock down contributed to this new sanctuary. 

I am lost for words why anyone would begin looking for love here.

These robotic dogs are quite amazing and it's slowly catching on with big business. Who cannot resist these pets with all the cool things that it can do. 

I just cannot wait to see on how they incorporate them in the work force.
